II. Lento and Accelerando

Zhou Long: Da Qu, for percussion and orchestra. Percussion maintains a prominent rôle in this work, whose title comes from an ancient form of court music utilizing song and dance, which exists in China only in literary records, while its Japanese equivalent (gagaku) can still be found in performance today. With Jonathan Fox, percussion. All three movements in one file (attacca).
